Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session

[Martin Pool]

The dbus plugin fails for me with this traceback:

As far as I know there's nothing strange about my desktop setup,

Marking as 'low' because it only seems to happen when there is some other problem with dbus.

[Martin Pool (mbp)]

Not a problem in bzr itself.

I'm seeing the same exception when doing "bzr gannotate some_file":

DBusException: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed: Failed to execute dbus-launch to autolaunch D-Bus session

As seahorse is not strictly needed, from what I see in revisionview.py:
try:
    from bzrlib.plugins.gtk import seahorse
except ImportError:
    has_seahorse = False
else:
    has_seahorse = True
wouldn't it be simpler and more robust to just let seahorse.py code fail (propagate the exception) and catch all exceptions in the above 'except', saying that any exception in seahorse is not fatal and just means we won't use seahorse?
At least when I do this, gannotate seems to work.

[Russel Winder (russel)]

I just tried to checkout the bzr-dbus branch and got something similar, using bzr 1.3.1 on Hardy. Clearly this looks like a python-dbus problem rather than a bzr problem, but I thought I would add to the canon of known issues.

This is a bzr-gtk issue, not bzr-dbus

Lots of people are hitting this and it is somewhat hard for new users to recover from this. Upgrading the importance of this bug.

[John Dong (jdong)]

IMO when bzr-dbus fails it shouldn't bring down the entire bzr operation. I use etckeeper, and in recovery mode when dbus isn't running I can't even commit without triggering this error.

[Jelmer Vernooij (jelmer)]

Yeah, same here. I've removed bzr-dbus from my systems because of this error. Perhaps it should be upgraded to critical?

I'll leave this bug open for bzr-gtk, the bzr-dbus part is also reported as bug #279486. It's a similar issue in bzr-dbus and bzr-gtk, but different bugs in bzr-gtk and bzr-dbus.
